New York-Style Pizza
Make a classic New York-style pizza with a thin crust, tomato sauce and cheese.
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
- 2/3 cup warm water 110° to 115°
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 8 ounces tomato sauce
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Romano cheese
- Optional: Chopped fresh basil dried oregano an
Instructions
- In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. In a large bowl, combine oil, salt, yeast mixture and 1 cup flour; beat on medium speed until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough (dough will be sticky). Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 475°. Grease a 14-in. pizza pan. Roll dough to fit pan. Pinch edge to form a rim. Cover and let rest 10 minutes. Spread with tomato sauce; top with cheeses. If desired, sprinkle with basil, oregano and pepper flakes. Bake on a lower oven rack until crust is lightly browned and cheese is melted, 15-20 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.
